We
liked Chris so we kept
him
Our
school used to be a normal boring school. One big class. One mean
teacher. Mr Norman made us do maths all day and gave us all detention
for no reason. One day a new kid came to our school named Brane. He
liked science and inventing things. He didn’t like Mr Norman at all so
he went to some boys and asked them to help him make a machine that can
swap people. The boys said
“What
for?’’
“To
change our teacher.’’
“Okay’’
said the boys.
So
the boys came over to Brane’s house. He drew his design and they
started building it in his garage. Brane got the boys to hand tools to
him and then he was finished.
The
next day he took it to school and before Mr Norman said anything Brane
pressed the button. Mr Norman disappeared and the machine came up with a
little old lady. The little old lady made us clip her toenails and
taught us knitting. No one liked the
old lady so Brane pressed the button again, and a cool guy came.
He
had spiky hair and a really big smile.
He said:
“Hey
everyone, my names Mr Baxter but you can call me Chris. My only rule is
to have fun but don’t get hurt.”
We
had free time all day from 9.00 to 3.00. Then one day Chris won the gold
lotto so he could pay for all new stuff.
On
Monday we played on the computers and Playstation 3 or watched TV. On
Tuesday we played normal games down stairs like footy and the Cowboys
coach came and taught us cool skills and the Crocs coach came and did
basketball training with us.
Wednesday
was a special day. The show came and we got to go on all the rides for
free.
On
Thursday we went to
town, to the movies and the Ingham pool.
On
Friday we could do anything we wanted. We
liked Chris so we kept
him.
